Titus 2:13-15

New International Reader's Version

¹³ That’s how we should live as we wait for the blessed hope God has given us. We are waiting for Jesus Christ to appear in his glory. He is our great God and Savior. ¹⁴ He gave himself for us. By doing that, he set us free from all evil. He wanted to make us pure. He wanted us to be his very own people. He wanted us to desire to do what is good.

¹⁵ These are the things you should teach. Encourage people and give them hope. Correct them with full authority. Don’t let anyone look down on you.
